WATCH: Elton John says he LOVES Dolce and Gabbana days after promising boycott
HE PROMISED to boycott Dolce and Gabbana after their comments on IVF and same sex families this week, but now Elton John has seemingly declared his love for the designers.
The 67-year-old music star was performing in Las Vegas when he made the comment, although it is unsure whether Elton was joking or not.
In footage obtained by TMZ, the Rocket Man singer lists a series of inspirational people from different nations who have changed the world, including Princess Diana and Nelson Mandela.
He then added: "In Italy, Dolce and Gabbana" – causing the audience to erupt into laughter.
He continued: "Listen, the band have been wearing Dolce & Gabbana, I love Dolce & Gabbana clothes."
This week, the singer slammed the designers as "judgemental","archaic" and "out of step with the times" after Domenico Dolce labeled children born through IVF as synthetic in an interview with an Italian magazine.
Elton has two children born through IVF with his husband David Furnish – Zachary, four, and Elijah, two.
In a scathing Instagram post the star wrote: "How dare you refer to my beautiful children as 'synthetic'.
"And shame on you for wagging you judgemental little fingers at IVF - a miracle that has allowed legions of loving people, both straight and gay, to fulfil their dream of having children.
"Your archaic thinking is out of step with the times, just like your fashions. I shall never wear Dolce and Gabbana ever again. BoycottDolceGabbana."
